If I may go out on a limb and speak for your squad.... I'm pretty sure when it comes to Chris Cornell you can restart that video as many times as necessary, his voice is just that good for you. And I'll go even further and say that those that disagree just don't matter. 😁 I was super excited for this one as soon as I saw it!!!
From Wiki. When asked what the song meant to Chris himself, here is how he responded. That was a song that really came from the guitar itself. It was mostly like the guitar was dictating what the lyrics should be and creating a mental image. The mental image was this sort of destitute guy. I guess he'd lost his cool if you want to put it that way. He's sort of coming to grips with what had happened and not necessarily feeling particularly emotional about it either way. He's trying to figure out how he would stand up and put one foot in front of the other-or not-and the song never really resolves any of that. It's just that moment of somebody sitting in the dirt. I had more moments like that after that song was written than I ever had before it was, so it means a lot more to me now than it did then.
I heard him read some of his poetry once.. Everyone was flabbergasted because it was dark and layered, but I thought it was deep.. I was higher than a kite, though, so..
Love it! The ‘I shot my love today’ some people say is about drugs but also could be that he just lost his love, ruined his ability to love or drugs or alcohol ruined relationships. Such a great lyricist. Soundgarden’s Fell on Black Days has more great lyrics and vocals. Also for a totally different bluesy side check out his solo song When I’m Down (live at the Troubadour).❤😊
Like your awareness of him. Especially, when im down. Yea, he struggked abd exoressed his inner feelings in the outket he had. And others dont have an outet. I didnt. But I rekate to the issues he brings up. I dont think i could express as strong as he did.
Soundgarden is my favorite band, and Chris was my favorite singer of all time. He was such an amazing talent, but he must have had some really heavy stuff in his mind, which you could hear in his lyrics and his voice. He basically spoke about his own impending death for all those years in his songs, but maybe that helped him deal with life? I don't know, but I so wish he was still with us, I miss him like he was family.
3:38 "I feel like he's speaking metaphorically right now, and I gotta figure out that mf metaphor." The metaphor in many of his songs, unfortunately, is his struggle with severe depression. :(
Yeah Bro you're right on! That's my favorite band.I saw their last tour in Atlanta in 1998. I'm so glad you liked it. Keep up the good work and God Bless y'all!
Soundgarden had a cut on the Badmotorfinger album name Slaves and Bulldozers. Chris' voice on this album was phenomenal and that cut is one of his best vocal performances. In my humble opinion. If you have a seatbelt on that chair buckle up before you start the reaction.
Was a good age (20's) when "grunge" came out and Chris Cornell's voice was the best of all the bands at the time... but I never truly understood his lyrics or genius regarding his feelings or soul until I was in my 40's.... seen him once with Audioslave and twice solo (all with my brother who passed in 2016), he is my generation's Freddie Mercury😢😢 RIP to a truly great voice and wordsmith (both of them) 😢😢😢
I saw them June 18th 1994. My graduation present at Wallace civic center Fitchburg ma. It was a local hockey rink. Fought my way to front(general admission) FROM THE DAY I TRIED TO LIVE ONWARD!!!!!!! UNFECKIN BELIEVABLE ❤❤❤❤❤
This is one of my favorite tunes. It's actually an homage to one of Chris's favorite songs..."Down by the River" by Neil Young. Very similar lyric content (killing your love down by the river...etc). I heard this in interviews. Glad I was 17 in 90 when this type of music jumped. 🤘🏼💀🤘🏼
Follow me into the desert is a metaphor for being dry. I lef I shot my love to day is drugs. Left it in the sand is falling off the wagon as is lost my head again and leaving a needle or bottle in what was the desert. Her is the is love for the drug of choice. Really clever lyrics. RIP Chris.
I know it’s not what he meant when he wrote the song but I was at their record release party for Down on the Upside in Bellevue WA. The band members were making jokes about this song saying “my skin dancing partner threw up on me again Chris” 😅. They were pretty hilarious.
Love this reaction man. The great thing about Cornell's metaphoric lyrics is they can be about whatever you want depending on how you are feeling. Even though he may have a specific meaning behind them. Theres no right or wrong in your interpretation.
The "burden in his hand" was any drug that he could hold in his hand. Alcohol, heroin (I shot my love today), pills, you name it. If he could hold it in his hand, it was a burden. RIP
Chris Cornell was the GOAT ❤ The "burden" in his hand reference is likely alcohol, which he struggled with for years. That also inspired his excellent solo song, Two Drink Minimum (also known as As Hope and Promise Fade.) Chk out the Walmart Soundcheck performance of that one for a different vibe.
@@davidhutchinson5233 More likely alcohol. He wasn't into heroin, and by the time he wrote this song, was already drinking heavily.He literally talks about drowning in alcohol in the lyrics.
'Down below the truth is lying beneath the riverbed. Quench yourself and drink the water that flows below her head.' 'I shot my love today, would you cry for me? I lost my head again, would you lie for me?' 'I left her lying in the sand- that's the burden in my hand.' This song has always been pretty straightforward to me, as to what it's about. One of my favorites by Soundgarden. Someone, who as a result of lacking self control, kills everything he loves or that's good for him. Metaphorically speaking, that could be everything and anything. That's the beauty of art, it's totally subjective. The Desert represents his sense of lonliness & despair, imo. But, he does speak to killing his girl and leaving/hiding her body at the sandy bottom of a river, like so much garbage. Now, it burdens him. 'Close your eyes & bow your head, I need a little sympathy. Cuz fear is strong & love is for everyone who isn't me...' 'Kill your health And kill yourself And kill everything you love. And IF you live, you can fall to pieces, And suffer with my ghost.' 'Just a burden in my hand, Just an anchor on my heart, Just a tumor in my head. And I'm in the dark.' 'So follow me into the desert, As desperate as you are. Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven, And all the little pigs have God.' Moral of the Story- He is his own worst enemy who destroys everything he loves. Enjoyed seeing how much joy Chris' voice brings you @Sceez. Be Easy Slime. 🤘
Chris's songs were always dark and depressing and that reflected the way he was feeling. It ultimately led to his untimely death.He left behind a beautiful wife and little girl. My favorite vocalist ever. Hey you wanna expand your music library? well check out their early music- back in the 90's- stuff like "Rusty Cage" and "Outshined" and "Right Turn" from AIC where Chris comes in mid way and blows you away lol!
@@Georgia-Vic Thanks for the advice. But trust me, I am fully familiar with Chris Cornell's entire musical career. From Soundgarden, to Auioslave, to Temple of the Dog to Alice Mud Garden, to his solo career & all the covers he performed & did so much justice to- that he not only made them his own... but made several of them preferable to the original versions. He did a great song called 'Left Turn' with Layne Staley and I can't think of the 3rd person offhand at the moment- pretty sure it's on AIC's 'Sap' LP. I'm a huge fan of Mother Love Bone & Malfunkshun. Chris's best friend Andrew Wood was the lyricist and frontman for them- he was quite the singer, poet & musician. Truth be told, Andy was among- if not THE very first popular & successful artist to assemble bands that bridged the gap between the hair metal bands of the eighties & the birth of the alternative/grunge genres. He was an amazing artist. Sadly, he OD'd and passed away right before his first MLB album dropped, shortly after being signed with a pretty major label. It absolutely crushed Chris and many other pioneers in the scene. In fact, AIC's song 'Would' is a tribute to Andy Wood. His passing was a huge blow to the alt/grunge scene as a whole, as he was set to be the first among them to get a big break, and sadly died before he could realize his dreams. In the interest of discretion & respecting her privacy, Andy's girlfriend & muse whom he referred to as Stargazer in his songs... was almost irreparably devastated by his untimely, tragic death. Chris wrote 'Say Hello To Heaven' about his best friend Andy. Or should I say he wrote it TO Andy, posthumously.

You will only be enriched by the experience and it's a worthwhile horizon expanding musical endeavor indeed.

It's about drugs. Heroin... The needle is what he left in the sand. The burden in his hand... He shot his beloved heroine in his vein and wrote a great song about it.
Burden in My Hand Follow me into the desert As thirsty as you are Crack a smile and cut your mouth And drown in alcohol 'Cause down below the truth is lying Beneath the river bed So quench yourself and drink the water That flows below her head Oh no There she goes Out in the sunshine The sun is mine, the sun is mine I shot my love today Would you cry for me?

This song helped me when I was going thru my drug addiction. Clean for over 15 years and not a day goes by I don't feel grateful.
Chris was rock n roll
One of the most special voices in history. This is my favorite because it's totally stripped down, chill and showcases Chris's talent.
Love it! The ‘I shot my love today’ some people say is about drugs but also could be that he just lost his love, ruined his ability to love or drugs or alcohol ruined relationships. Such a great lyricist.

This is one of my favorite songs by Soundgarden. Chris's voice is epic
‘Rusty Cage’ is an all time great Soundgarden song.
If you like this, you need to hear “Pretty Noose”!
RIP, Chris Cornell. Check out an acoustic performance, "Nothing compares to You".
So many Soundgarden songs to go with. Hit up “ Oushined “ ASAP
“ Outshined “
I mean... This song.. that voice and those eyes. He was all kinds of good. So sad.
3:38 "I feel like he's speaking metaphorically right now, and I gotta figure out that mf metaphor." The metaphor in many of his songs, unfortunately, is his struggle with severe depression. :(
A beast
I think you're spot on about addiction. Giving up something you love and seeking solace
chris is my hero always will be. i miss him so much. his music was the soundtrack of my life
Yeah Bro you're right on! That's my favorite band.I saw their last tour in Atlanta in 1998. I'm so glad you liked it. Keep up the good work and God Bless y'all!
Always been lowkey my favorite soundgarden song. It just hit so hard on every front.

One of their best.

awesome .. I love the innocent reaction.. Andyour mention of it being metiforical Good job
My wife loves love’s Audioslave, and I’m like meh.. I don’t think over heard anything darker or more layered in my life than Soundgarden.. Legends..
Always love the video..
It's about drugs. Heroin... The needle is what he left in the sand. The burden in his hand... He shot his beloved heroine in his vein and wrote a great song about it.
You ARE on the correct journey, just keep going back to Temple Of The Dog,
that’s Chris becoming Chris

It's not always addiction
He shot 💉 his love today!( Heroin) a burden in his hand..he lost his head again.
Burden in My Hand
Follow me into the desert
As thirsty as you are
Crack a smile and cut your mouth
And drown in alcohol
'Cause down below the truth is lying
Beneath the river bed
So quench yourself and drink the water
That flows below her head
Oh no
There she goes
Out in the sunshine
The sun is mine, the sun is mine
I shot my love today
Would you cry for me?
I lost my head again
Would you lie for me?
Close your eyes and bow your head
I need a little sympathy
'Cause fear is strong and love's for everyone
Who isn't me
Kill your health and kill yourself
And kill everything you love
And if you live you can fall to pieces
And suffer with my ghost
I shot my love today
Would you cry for me?
I lost my head again
Would you lie for me?
I left her in the sand
Just a burden in my hand
I lost my head again
Would you cry for me?
Just a burden in my hand
Just an anchor on my heart
It's just a tumor in my head
And I'm in the dark
So follow me into the desert
As desperate as you are
Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven
And all the little pigs have God
Oh no
There she goes
Out in the sunshine
The sun is mine, the sun is mine
I shot my love today
Would you cry for me, yeah?
I lost my head again
Would you lie for me?
I left her in the sand
Just a burden in my hand
I lost my head again
